Damn, sorry I didn't see this getting bumped. Yeah, the ignition is still running great. I didn't use a heat sink on the ZTX transistor either, and I have driven to and from Charleston [about a 5 hour continuous ride each way] with this setup.

I love it...no complaints, only compliments.

I did blow my motor though, so the car will be out of comission for a while.

I'll be more than happy to help anyone out with any problems they might have with this setup.

If you look up a few posts, I modified the schematic to make it a little more understandable.

Maybe add a touch more info:

For the Yel/Grn wire:

98-99 Teg and 96-98 Civic - A20
00-01 Teg and 99-00 Civic - B13
92-95 Civic (and I'd guess 94-97 Teg but I don't have their Helms) - A21

Eek, should be A21...my setup is on a 92 Civic. I'll change/add that.

Here are pictures of all of it installed, please excuse the pollen...georgia in april is horrible:

Blue wire here from distributor goes to the tach output on the msd box. Yel/Blk from the distributor goes to the +12V on the trigger circuit and to the +12V wire on the MSD box.


Here is everything mounted. I put everything in the location where the SRS computer goes...since I don't have any of the SRS stuff in my car anymore.


This is the original location on the distributor plug for the trigger wire.


I depinned that wire and put a blank plug in place as seen below. For the wire that runs to the trigger circuit, I just ran a wire from pin A21 on the ECU.

Did you find what you needed? I don't know the part # for the prototype board...I just grabbed one off the shelf.

I do have a ZTX857 if you need one...or you can order one from DigiKey.

Turbocivic94

Digikey didnt have ZTX857 in stock. I think they just came off backorder. I should be getting it soon. I'l let u know if they dont have them. Thanks

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH.

I just finished installing my MSD w/ your bypass; and you and overboost.com were soooo helpful.

i'll get pics up of my setup soon. Again thank you so much, as soon as the car turned on and no CEL came on i was happy. I'll let you know how well it does over time.

R@mon

does anyone sell them premade? dont realy want to hassle with it, sorry im lazy

01geeser

loose alternator ground does that too.

drumking15

well my gf's teg was doing the same tach bouncing all over the place...it was rather funny...bouncing off the rev limiter it hit well beyond 12k....hahaha it was a good laugh...but replace the ingniter and by bye bad tach signal and car def doesnt have the hesitation anymore...thanks for the great thread!

bump for some updates , I just finished my bypass box and going to install it this week , just wanted to here if any one had some new info ????

DaX

The only update I would give is to NOT use a heat sink and thermal compound on the transistors. I tried this on the last one I built for someone and it didn't work because the compound shorted out the leads on the transistor. I have run my setup for extended drives (5 straight hours) and checked the temperature on the transistors and they weren't even hot, so a heat sink isn't even really necessary.

Good luck with the build!

bigdaddyvtec

I agree with about all of the above.. Also, ive had a distributor cap crack, and do THE EXACT SAME THING... **** I thought it was akll kinds a ****, my buddy took a look at the cap and that ended being the cheap easy fix. It bucked, and popped, and wouldnt start...all kinds of crazy ****...almost thought the t belt jumped or some ****.

Good luck

This is what happens to my car between 6,200-6,600RPMs.

Thanks for the excellent post/pics.

Bumping an old one, but I performed another successful igniter deletion from my bud's LS-VTEC this weekend.

GsrRussell

Yep it worked flawlessly. Anyone interested in one I think Dax could hook you up.

pgpbubble

Hows this holding out? Mine starting to brake up lately; and i'm going to be getting a MSD digital 6 box soon anyway.

pcguy760

Firstly sorry guys to bump an old thread but I suspect my ignitor is gone bad and I want to do this mod so I am hoping Dax or someone who knows will comment - my question is, can I use this mod with my MSD SCI-L box and Blaster SS Coil or does it HAVE to be a MSD 6A?
